<p><strong>Purpose: </strong>To examine barriers recruiters encounter when enrolling African American study participants, identify motivating factors to increase research participation, and provide recommendations facilitate successful minority recruitment. </p><p><strong>Background: </strong>Recruiters are often the first point of contact between potential participants. While challenges in Americans into clinical epidemiologic has been reported...
Background Engaging diverse populations in biomedical research, including biospecimen donation, remains a national challenge. This study examined factors associated with an invitation to participate intent research the future, and participation donation among diverse, multilingual, community‐based sample across 3 distinct geographic areas. Methods Three National Cancer Institute–designated cancer centers engaged community partnerships develop implement population health assessments, reaching...

Abstract Establishing sustainable and impactful partnerships to advance health equity disparities research requires a multipronged approach assessing aligning community organizational priorities toward common goals objectives. Partnerships ensure ongoing meaningful should ideally provide win-win for stakeholders the system. This often cultural shift regarding how what extent academic/medical institutions value fully engage diverse as experts in process delivery of care. At Duke Cancer...
Abstract Background: Nationally, cancer disparities negatively impact minority communities at alarming rates. Minorities have low rates of screenings compared to white counterparts, resulting in Latinos having poor outcomes lung, colon, breast, and prostate cancers. Previous studies examined race/ethnic disparities, yet improved health are lagging the Latino community. We assessed perceptions recommendations improving screenings, treatment, research participation, survivorship within...
Abstract Introduction: Cancer is the leading cause of death in North Carolina. While incidence rate breast cancer (BC) higher White women, African American and Latino women are more likely to die from BC than women. Moreover, inflammatory (IBC) a rare aggressive form BC, Americans be diagnosed with IBC compared whites, have poor outcomes, generally less get life-saving information resources reduce risks. Additionally, work needed improve diagnosis rates decrease time treatment for patients....
Abstract Introduction: Community-based screening programs are associated with increased access to care, particularly for traditionally underserved people of color, the poor, and those who face barriers health care resources. The utility fairs increase by providing screenings services that include accountable clearly articulated follow-up plans can, in part, address disparities. Interestingly, same populations community-based typically serve grossly under-represented medical clinical...
Abstract Introduction: Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is a rare but the most lethal often misdiagnosed as mastitis or dermatitis since majority of cases lack clinically apparent tumor mass and present with progressive erythema skin edema. Further exacerbating this its incidence, more often, in premenopausal women who have yet to initiate regular screening, and/or manifestation color, whom signs disease may be subtle. Thus, goal research understand IBC awareness knowledge clinical related...
Abstract Introduction: Breast cancer (BC) remains the second leading cause of deaths amongst women worldwide. In United States, African American and Latino are disproportionately burdened by incidence mortality BC compared with Caucasian women. Inflammatory breast (IBC) is a rare aggressive form BC. more likely to be diagnosed IBC at earlier age whites. frequently lacks lump hence difficult detect. often late stage III or IV has worse prognosis than non-IBC Critically, awareness continues...
Abstract Introduction: Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is an understudied and aggressive subtype, accounting for 7-10% of all cancer-related deaths in the United States. IBC more common among African American (AA) women, who also develop higher rates treatment resistance when compared to other races survival are lower after adjusting nonbiologic socioeconomic factors. typically lacks a clinically apparent tumor mass, leading misdiagnoses delays. There little research on patient perspective...
